DS110RT410
SNLS460A – MAY 2013 – REVISED OCTOBER 2015
Device Functional Modes (continued)
The SMBus address is latched into the DS110RT410 on power-up. The address is read in from the state of the
<AD3:AD0> lines (pins 16, 21, 40, and 45 respectively) upon power-up. In either SMBus mode these address
lines are input pins on power-up.
The DS110RT410 can be configured with any of 16 SMBus addresses. The SMBus addressing scheme uses the
least-significant bit of the SMBus address as the Read/Write_N address bit. When an SMBus device is
addressed for writing, this bit is set to 0; for reading, to 1. Table 1 lists the write address setting for the
DS110RT410 versus the values latched in on the address lines at power-up.
The address byte sent by the SMBus master over the SMBus is always 8 bits long. The least-significant bit
indicates whether the address is for a write operation, in which the master will output data to the SMBus to be
read by the slave, or a read operation, in which the slave will output data to the SMBus to be read by the master.
if the least-significant bit is a 0, the address is for a write operation. If it is a 1, the address is for a read
operation. Accordingly, SMBus addresses are sometimes referred to as seven-bit addresses. To produce the
write address for the SMBus, the seven-bit address is left-shifted by one bit. To produce the read address, it is
left shifted by one bit and the least-significant bit is set to 1. Table 1 lists the seven-bit addresses corresponding
to each set of address line values.
When the DS110RT410 is used in SMBus slave mode, the READ_EN pin must be tied low. If it is tied high or
floating, the DS110RT410 will not latch in its address from the address lines on power-up. When the READ_EN
pin is tied high in SMBus slave mode (that is, when the EN_SMB pin (pin 20) is tied high), the DS110RT410 will
revert to an SMBus write address of 0x30. This is a test feature. If there are multiple DS110RT410 devices on
the same SMBus, they will all revert to an SMBus write address of 0x30, which can cause SMBus collisions and
failure to access the DS110RT410 devices over the SMBus.

Once the DS110RT410 has latched in its SMBus address, its registers can be read and written using the two
pins of the SMBus interface, serial data (SDA) and serial data clock (SDC).
7.4.3 SDA and SDC
In both SMBus master and SMBus slave mode, the DS110RT410 is configured using the SMBus. The SMBus
consists of two lines, the SDA or serial data line (pin 18) and the SDC or serial clock line (pin 17). In the
DS110RT410 these pins are 3.3-V tolerant. The SDA and SDC lines are both open-drain. They require a pullup
resistor to a supply voltage, which may be either 2.5 V or 3.3 V. A pullup resistor in the 2-kΩ to 5-kΩ range will
provide reliable SMBus operation.
